Need Name For Script

[MilesGX]

A came up for a cool science fiction thriller about a group of space program engineers, who built a teleportation machine, which can bring objects or lifeform from an alien planet. Then something went wrong with the machine, and it starts teleporting hostile alien lifeforms and environments from the alien planet to Earth. Strange landscapes and man eatting alien creatures appear across the Earth. The main characters must travel through the alien infested areas to reach their facility where the teleportation machine is. Their goal is to reverse the machine so it can teleport the aliens and alien environments back to the alien planet, before the aliens overpopulate the Earth and wipe out the human race. I couldn't think of a cool eye catching title for this movie script. Any suggestions?

My first thought is "Oops!" but I suppose that wouldn't do. Earthscream?

How about "Worldstorm" -- I mean, it's not exactly on point, but it's sort of what's happening -- it's like there's a storm of piece of other worlds coming into earth, or something.

TELEPORTER: ALIEN DOOM 2020 A.D.

Heck, I'd want to see a movie with a title like that.

Of course, declaring it's a cool science fiction thriller and actually writing a script that is a cool science fiction thriller are two entirely different things. Ideas are ten-a-penny, the proof is in the writing.

Here's a few...

"Home Time"
"Sender"
"Exterminate"
"The rewind team"
"Resurrection Earth"
"The way it was" (Has been used before 1974 TV series PBS, but I don't think many people will remember)
"Operation Reversal"
"They came from outer space" (Sorry couldn't resist)

The Switch. Have a switch in the teleporter that can reverse the process - but even when they reach it, it's been damaged. They must overcome extreme dangers to bring the scientist/spares or whatever, to get it fixed again.

Some of those sound like sequels to the Alien Franchise (Maybe not a bad thing though...)

[nmstevens]

The rift.

I'm afraid there's already a movie called, "The Rift."

[Buddikins]

Strangers on Earth
Glitch
Malfunction
Operation (insert operation name here lol)
MISS WITE (More Idiot Scientists Screwing WIth TEleportation)...
Ruining Continuum
:Shrug: sorry, they arent really much chop
good luck finding a good title though. Sound like a cool idea :D

[C.bronco]

Cool premise!

Nerds Gone Wild
Special Delivery
Guess Who's Having Me for Dinner?

[kullervo]

How about "Stargate," considering they've done that plot three times?

[clockwork]

What plot haven't Stargate done three times?

[WriteKnight]

"Working Title"

or

"Work in Progress"

I choose Worldstorm for now, but I'm still looking for a better serious title. The teleportation machine takes stuff off the alien planet and place on Earth. The aliens and landscapes bascailly appear out of nowhere. It's like someone is screwing in the past, which is affecting the future. When the teleportation machine malfuntion, it created a portal, which teleports the aliens from their planet to random places on Earth. The portal is in an image of a space cluster like storm expanding across the Earth's atmosphere. The more it expands, the more alien lifeforms and alien landscraps will appear on the Earth. The main characters' goal is to find out what went wrong with the machine, try to reverse the effect, and shut the machine down.

Do the chunks of earth that are now alien landscape get teleported to the alien planet? That would have hilarious consequences right there. Can you imagine this little old lady and this grouchy old man sitting on their porch, he's yelling at the neighbor's yappy dog, then ZAP! they're on another planet, and he finds a new alien to complain about, they're both oblivious that anything has happened, then at the end of the movie they're zapped back and he says something to the neighbor like "Man, you sure got ugly!"

...what? Anyway carry on.

[MilesGX]

The teleportation storm only teleports aliens and the alien environments to Earth. Not on teleporting Earth stuff to the alien world. The Earth is basically becoming a fusion of the alien planet.

So does the earth become bigger or is it more that just some of the surface changes?

[MilesGX]

More of the surface changes. But no mutations.

[icerose]

Okay. What if something on earth was there, is it squished, or just set on top of the new alien surface, or is it kind of assimilated into it?

[MilesGX]

When the alien mountains or jungles appear, they grow out of the ground. And alien lifeforms appear out of thin air as if they are ghosts becoming solid.

[icerose]

That's interesting, so if a jungle appears in a strip mall, then the buildings get destroyed and crumble as the trees sprout and such?

I hope my questions aren't annoying you, your concept is pretty cool, I think it would make an awesome game and I think the game world would do it better justice, but breaking into the game world is sadly next to impossible unless you know people.

[MilesGX]

Well I plan the story to become a live action movie, but it would also make a cool first person shooter or survival game. I'll post a sample of the script soon. Thank you.

[GigiZ]

I like the latin word "Machina"
as in Deus ex Machina.
If your aliens also looked like robots/machines it'd be cool. Or if the machine looked like a robot and the aliens looked like plain machines.
Maybe I'll shut up and post a snoopy emoticon. Here: :snoopy:

[MilesGX]

How about the movie is called The Nexus. Like the teleportation storm is called that.

This has me thinking of the word "stalagmite" and... mist, condensation, combustion, (brainstorming)

Stalagmite Hollow

Seems appropriate according to "The aliens and landscapes bascailly appear out of nowhere."

I can see a movie poster with a black background looking over a vast landscape, slightly misty, with holes scattered across the rough surface decaying into the depths of that which is... Stalagmite Hollow.

[writingmom]

I think it's cool !!! :)

[MilesGX]

Thanks.
